The Keeping Up With The Kardashians bombshell dropped a subtle hint at her new romance on Valentines Day, sharing a snap of a poem which read: “Roses are red, violets are blue, garlic bread, Blink-182.”
Kourtney and Travis are said to have met over six years ago when Kourt’s younger sister, Khloé Kardashian moved onto the same gated road as the Blink-182 drummer in Calabasas, California.
Travis and his ex-wife Shanna have also featured in several episodes of Keeping Up With The Kardashians as their son, Landon, 17, is pals with Kourt’s eldest son, Mason.
Their romance is Kourtney’s first public relationship following her split from long-term boyfriend, Scott Disick, who she split from in 2015 following a 12-year relationship.
